Lawsuit Aims To Call BS On Microsoft Surface Storage Size ClaimsA lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles claiming that Microsoft is misrepresenting the storage capacity of its Surface tablets. According to the Plaintiff, Microsoft's pre-installed software takes up about half of a 32 GB unit's storage space and only leaves 46 GB available to use by owners of 64 GB units. By comparison, pre-installed software in Google's Nexus 10 32 GB tablet only takes up 5 GB of space. If you're thinking of buying a Surface, be aware that you may be getting significantly less space then what's advertised. [Consumerist]
